Surveying as a career

Surveying is concerned with the measurement, management, analysis and display of spatial information describing the earth, its physical features and the built environment.

Modern surveying deals with more than just measurement, it is also about computer graphics, information systems and spatial analysis. Surveying and Spatial Information Systems is a phrase that encompasses the traditional discipline which covers cadastral & engineering surveying, geodesy, land management, satellite positioning, photogrammetry and hydrography – but also includes fields such as remote sensing, cartography, geographic information systems.

A good level of mathematical understanding is the common requirement for all areas of surveying and spatial information sciences. In addition, the use of computers and/or a range of instruments make Science & IT good grounding subjects.

Surveying & Spatial Information Systems offers career options for anyone. Surveying is a rapidly developing set of disciplines that bridge outdoor activity with office environment utilizing the latest computer based technology. Surveyors & SI Specialists are involved many fields of the measurement sciences including capture and manipulation of data which is used for many applications in resource and environmental management, surface and terrain mapping, urban and rural planning.
